The ambience is bizarre, like something from my childhood in the 50s. The parking lot is odd. But oh, the donuts! I particularly love the fritters. The jellys have a lot of jelly. The coffee is good and they made fresh decaf for me on an afternoon visit. If going on 94 headed to 8 or vice versa, exit Spring and stock up on the way. read more

4:20pm Monday $1.95 old fashioned chocolate frosted donut not fresh. Easy parking. Service and ambiance ok.

Amazing service, lady was really nice. Donuts are fresh and soft. Would recommend. It gives cozy vibes. read more

Sunny Donuts - The donuts we got - Donuts Near Me - La Mesa, California

I am not a sweets person but these donuts were SO amazing that my cousin and I came here twice in the SAME day! The glaze donuts are so soft and pillowy and the glaze is not thick or overly sweet. She also gave us a free donut! We also ordered a strawberry banana smoothie and it was so smooth, the bananas were perfect. so sweet that it tasted like honey was added, but it was the sweet bananas! better and more authentic than jamba juice in my opinion. the only reason my review lacks a star is because when we first went, an older woman made our smoothie and it was amazing. when we went back later in the day, it was a younger woman working there and she didnt make our smoothie the same way, using a different recipe. my new staple for sure! read more

Great glazed old fashioned and glazed buttermilk. The coffee was very fresh and perfect! You can sit down and enjoy your coffee and donut on an old fashioned stool and counter sort of court in a Malt shop from the fifties. read more

Sunny Donuts - We outside tonight! - Donuts Near Me - La Mesa, California

The reviews reflect correctly. It's a donut shop, it's nothing to write home about. There is a good selection. Not all of the donuts looked professionally pleasing. The service was average at best. She was on her phone the entire time and it was hard to tell which conversation she was carrying on (to us or to the person she was talking to). Price seemed fair, but I thought it was not cool to not mention a credit card transaction fee. She's is added it on without notice. Had I known, I would have paid cash. It was an odd amount and I didn't want extra change back read more

Hooked me up with fresh donuts on the spot at night ! Family favorite and local business.

These donuts are so stale they taste like drywall! Poor quality! Out of the $19 dollar overpriced dozen only one tasted good the rest should be used for landfill!!! Hard pass!!!!! read more

I ordered the bacon, egg and cheese croissant and it was gross. The bread felt old and tasted off. There was like 1 slice of thin cheese and the egg was made in the microwave. It was nasty. I don't recommend this place. They don't care. The place looks outdated which normally isn't a problem but it's coupled with a lot of other careless things, you can tell they've just given up. read more

Sunny Donuts - Bacon egg cheese croissant - Donuts Near Me - La Mesa, California

The amount/size of the doughnuts for the price is nice, but the quality is mid at best. I woke up to a entire box of pastries almost untouched, and with 3 kids that says a lot. read more

Just stopped at Sunny donuts for the first time this week. Had the absolute best chocolate glazed donut ever. It was noon and it was very fresh. Hard to find a really good donut nowadays. Excellent, friendly service, too !!!! I will be back very soon read more

Ok so it's been a year since I started coming here and I'm still loving this place. The sandwiches are still fantastic. Make sure Lin is the one behind the counter though. I've been back several times for the sandwich and there's another lady that works sometimes who makes them completely different and they're just not as good. Lin takes what I assume is a croissant they make there, toasts it up and makes you two fresh eggs to put on top of it. You can get cheese, ham, bacon etc as well. I usually opt for the number four which is ham, bacon and cheese. It's amazing. Highly recommend this place. The donuts, donut holes and other creations are amazing as well. Stop by soon! read more

Donuts are tasty but not restocked as once the major donut shop would make donuts all day. A good product but I miss the old guys that would sit there for hours for refills on coffee and chat. I miss the good ole boys. Also miss the buZz when people ate Donuts I'm the pre Keto days! My fondest memory was pink boxes from heavenly donuts and the pick shops with square glazed donuts. We used to stop at Quality donuts on Market Street near 32nd and a dozen were priced at $2.99 a mixed dozen and the elderly smoking lady with a large mole on her face would smile in her husky voice what may I help you with? Those were fond donut memories! read more

Terrible, old guy making the food touched my croissant coming out the oven with his bare hands like he forgot to use the paper napkins because he then touched the crossaint with the paper napkin after he realised I saw him. Gross ! Then was going to charge me $8.50 for an egg croissant ! No gloves , no cleanliness. Avoid !! read more

You really can't go wrong when getting the variety dozen! Spent $36 including tax for two dozen donuts and made an entire office happy. The donuts were large, the fillings tasted fresh, and the service was excellent. The vibe was very typical of a mom and pop donut shop so if that's your vibe you're gonna love it. I also have to mention all the sweet old folks that come in early in the morning, it's a genuinely good start to anyone's day! Coffee, donuts, and good morning chats. read more

Brought home 4 donuts on a Sunday morning and all 4 were old. Like very old and each kind was a different flavor. The most disappointing donut shop in San Diego County read more

Our family bit into rock hard doughnuts on a Saturday Morning. The employee didn't seem to care about the quality and blamed the overnight worker. Pretty sad experience. Some of our doughnuts were likely more than 2 days old. read more

The only fresh donut in town! I tried sixteen other donut shops' hard, glazed donuts before I had Miss Donuts spongy and flavorful one. It melted in my mouth the way a delicious donut should. Finally! I was about to give up hope of finding a decent donut in this town. read more

Stumbled upon this little gem while walking around town. I bought a Boston cream pie donut in the afternoon, and it still tasted fresh! It was really cheap, and even cheaper if you have cash! read more

I'm sorry hut I am so unimpressed. There was no selection except for maybe 3 or 4 options, kinda hard to make a nice dozen. I also ordered the donut holes and I'm sorry but it was so hard, part of it was crunchy! Also, ordered 2 ham and cheese croissants and the lady literally sighed out loud when I asked if she could warm them up for us. Plus $3 for a small kids sunny delight, was kinda steep to me. read more

Great place to pick up a dozen donuts. They have a good selection of classic donuts. Apple fritters are awesome. A mom and pop donuts shop. We live in La Mesa and so many spots have closed. We are happy to have a place to pick up a treat on the weekend. read more

After giving in to my donut craving, i was not disappointed. I got toasted coconut and chocolate with sprinkle. So moist and delicious. Not too sweet. I actually wish I didn't stop here, because I will want to come back multiple times a week now. read more

I went to buy some donuts this morning, and when I opened the box I found a bite mark on one of the donuts. I do not appreciate having that in any food that I buy. I suggest to the people who run the shop to get their act together and pay more attention to their manners and their personal hygiene, or they will be getting more complaints that will cause them to lose business. read more

I would post a photo but THATS how amazing their glazed donut is. I ate that thing so fast. It was sooooooo PERFECT. Warm, a crisp crunch of the glaze that wasnt overkill; just PERFECT. Biting into the crisp glaze then FLUFFY donut. It was my first time yesterday and I am going to there for a lifetime. I think I found my new favorite study spot. read more

Great, fresh donuts! The service was kind and efficient. My recommendation is to go early in the morning though to get the freshest donuts. We went later in the day, and the selection was limited. read more

I really like this Sunny Donuts location where La Mesa meets the 125 freeway. The donuts are good and the people working very friendly and have great customer service. When they didn't have my chocolate with peanut topping, she went in the back and made me one, who does that! They treat customers right, here. A nice place that deserves your business. read more

Terrible donuts, looked like a toddler made them and they tasted weird- a few tasted day old and the others were dense like bricks. Won't ever go back and this place used to be great! Hadn't been since we moved from La Mesa a few years ago and gave it a try. Nope- stick with yum yum or honey donuts read more

Donuts are always nice and sponge, great assortment and prices. Parking lot is a little tricky during busy times.

I love getting donuts here and dropping them off to clients. The cost is reasonable and items are fresh. I love the Apple fritters. They have that crunchy bite around the corners and cooked just right in the middle. If you like soft apple fritters then this may not be the right place. However, the selection is good. There is a Starbucks right next door if you want more pizzaz to your coffee read more

Run!!! Omg! Worst donuts EVER from a shop! These were like 2days old! They are not even covered from bugs etc! I almost went with my instinct, but I'm mad I didn't. This place is selling stale donuts! It is so gross in there, it feels like an old rundown dirty building. Then after the fact, I read the reviews here! Omg. Such gross stories! And many about how stale they are! Do NOT pay for this crap! Go just down the road to where I usually go, Miss Donuts on Campo Rd and Conrad. Always very fresh! Omg. I feel sick after eating a donut. Old donuts are the WORST. The place is very unfriendly too! JUST GO ANYWHERE BUT HERE!! read more

I was out doing some early grocery shopping on a Sunday morning and decided to pick up donuts for breakfast when my guys woke up and I stopped here. It off to the side near a plaza as a standalone building but there is ample parking available. There was a short line in order to get to the counter but everything was spaced out well so we weren't on top of each other or in each other's way. When it was my turn I was able to quickly order, pay, and head on out. The staff working was so friendly. He was so excited to get a tip and it was so genuine that it made my heart swell. The inside has some counter as well as table seating available so you can enjoy your donut and coffee right there. They also have the ability to warm up some of their treats for you! I know that if I am close by I will come again. read more

Probably one of the most underrated donut shops in the San Diego area. A little secret. Go there around 8:30 pm and the Apple fritters are still warm out of the fryer. They are crispy and delicious. Old fashion glazed is also a favorite of mine read more

Good donuts. Still tasty despite a midday visit. Recommend the glazed and apple fritter. Quite enjoyable.

These donuts were amazing I came on a late night cravings run and was wowed. Very nice people as well.

The donuts were so dense. It was odd to bite into a thick donut. I liked the assortment, but it just wasn't good, we had to throw them all out. read more

Best donut shop in the area! They're light and fluffy, and they taste very fresh even as we showed up mid day. I'm not usually a big donut fan, most places I've been to are too dense and taste like they've been sitting around too long. Not the case at Sunny Donuts! The woman at the counter was also very pleasant as we picked out our dozen. Great little location and thankfully close to home to get my donut fix! read more
